Of the 19 school districts in
Somerset County, 5 were Yes, 13 were No, and 1 refused to answer.

1 - The nondiscrimination statement does not
contain specific categories but does refer to the district policy that includes
"affectional or sexual orientation."

2 - The original letter of inquiry with an
enclosed stamped postcard was not returned and with over ten telephone calls no answer was
forthcoming. Therefore, it is assumed that the district refuses to reveal their
nondiscrimination statement's status.

3 - No categories listed in a general
statement of Equal Opportunity Employer (EOE), but there is a list in their policy
containing "affectional or sexual orientation."

* The protected categories may
or may not be engaged by the school districts with Equal Opportunity Employer (EOE)
statements. EOE is not to be presumed to include "affectional or sexual
orientation" by any particular school district's philosophy and/or practices. A
general statement such as this is limited to employment. The students and community
encompassing the district are not within a general declaration, necessarily.
Additionally, "affectional or sexual orientation" is not a part of affirmative
action.
